A poem by Emily Dickinson

Joy In Death

________________________________________________
Title:     Joy In Death
Author: Emily Dickinson [More Titles by Dickinson]

If tolling bell I ask the cause.
'A soul has gone to God,'
I'm answered in a lonesome tone;
Is heaven then so sad?

That bells should joyful ring to tell
A soul had gone to heaven,
Would seem to me the proper way
A good news should be given.







[The end]
Emily Dickinson's poem: Joy In Death
